Tonight August 12th, and into the morning hours of the 13th should provide viewers living away from the city lights a spectacular light show. Midnight should be pretty active for those not wanting to stay awake all night long.

 

Tonight will be the peak of the showers, but for a couple more nights there's still a chance that you can catch some of it before it dies down.

 

Promising Perseid Meteor Shower Peaks Tonight: How to See It

Supposed to be a clear night, I think.

 

I'll probably sneak a peek or two.

About 10 or so years ago took all of Daddy's Little Girls to Woodland Mounds Park which is about 10 miles past Riverbend, place was PACKED, but we got there early enough (around midnight) to get a good spot. SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!

11p-4a tonight will be the peak hours. Will be visible in the Northern sky. Nights like tonight are great ones for us third shift guys.

 

I know where I will be at during break and lunch.

If I can manage to stay awake, I still have the issue of being way too close to the haze of the city lights of Cincinnati. I did try to catch an extended nap today so hopefully I can take a midnight drive later away from the city.

Sitting on my patio now looking north and haven't seen anything. Did I miss it? Is it yet to happen?

Although I may be too close to the city to see it.

I am so glad I saw this thread. Just got back inside, it was very hit or miss but I saw four meteors/shooting stars. It was amazing just how fast they moved, the distance they covered and how fast they vanished. Neat experience!

Still haven't seen a single one in Edgewood.

From 3:05-3:15a and 5-5:10a I saw 9 meteors in the Northern & Northeast skies. Plus while star gazing saw the space station as well.

 

Not bad for 20 mins of looking up...

I managed to stay up late enough to try to see stuff, but couldn't bring myself to go driving at that wee hour alone into the boondocks without any real sense of where I would go, and with living so close to downtown Cincy, it would have to be a good distance away from the city. I stepped outside a couple of times to see what I could see, but because of all of the light pollution, it was a complete bust. :(

 

Kudos to those of you who were able to catch some of it. :thumb:

I saw four between 11:00 and 12:00.
